Despite interest in Seri, it appears that Fred is still City’s main target for the ‘No. 6’ role.

As far as I know it’s Fred as first choice target, Seri as second. Talks with both. City want to do a deal now but bring them in (whichever one it ends up being, or even another if both somehow fail) in the summer.

The topic is Shakhtar Donetsk's Fred, who seems to be City's first choice as a long-term Fernandinho successor.@ManuelVeth joins to gives us fantastic insight, as well as exclusive potential transfer news 👀
